It's hard to put in the angle data for trajectory but the meteor was travelling roughly between ursa major and ursa minor starting close to overhead and heading in a N or NNE direction( the time of 17.55 UK time is +- 5 min's ), this is the best fireball meteor I've seen in my lifetime with only one other similar 30 years ago but with hundreds of other meteors bewtween
